What's wrong with the shopping season?

take_theride November 30 2009, 04:45:10 UTC

Insanity. Mothers biting each other for the last doll on the shelf. Men fist-fighting over the last television. Children crying. Shoplifting alarms going off. Fucking everything.

liverletdie November 30 2009, 04:47:21 UTC

That's why I shop online. Plus, my profits skyrocket.

Criminal aspects of the past, mind you. This post says nothing about partaking in any currently.

Well thank God for that, huh?

Dude, I was actually gonna, like, say something, but all I saw was "blah blah I know big words blah blah" and then I sorta, y'know. Zoned out.

Seriously, though, mall Santas're, like, totes scary. Trick is to carry your mace in, like, one hand and then keep the Ax in the other. I mean, it also smells nasty, but not as nasty so, y'know. Total win.

... hire me. I'm crazy, but it's the open sorta crazy, so you know what you're, like, getting into. Not like when you hire someone quiet and neat and one day they just snap and, like, totally stab everyone. With the broken pieces of your pelvic bones.

On top of that, I look damngood in heels and a mini-skirt. Like, there totally isn't any other hobo off the street who's gonna be able to say that, amirite?

I don't recall saying anything too difficult for someone with a high school diploma to understand, and literacy is "totes" part of the job.

Sorry, Barbie, but I'm a fucking journalist.

[woooops voice] ohexplodable November 30 2009, 07:26:34 UTC

Pfff. Dude, literacy isn't a problem. I read an' write an' all that just fine, but why waste time with extra syllables if, like, you don't need to?

But hey, your loss, mister journalist guy.

I'm not the one who doesn't have an assistant.

take_theride November 30 2009, 07:33:25 UTC

It's Duke.

And to answer your question, people need to be able to understand what they read. I'm not using any more syllables than I need to.

How bad do you need a job? I'm running low on Wild Turkey.

Mr. Duke, please don't throw flaming turkeys at people. I'm pretty sure that gets you arrested.

take_theride December 1 2009, 04:32:20 UTC

Not in modern society. It just gets you shot.

hisforonehour December 1 2009, 04:45:52 UTC

I'd think that's worse than getting arrested.

take_theride December 1 2009, 04:49:00 UTC

It was at least two years ago.

...Well. Perhaps longer. Different dates and everything.

Wait. Does this mean I'm actually 72 years old? Shit.
